Chapter 26

Water Polo

Caitlin ran down the stairs and hoisted her bag over her back at the sound of the doorbell, water polo beckoned. Without a second thought, she opened the door. With her hand on the handle her eyes jumped out of their sockets as she saw who it was. Daniel smiled and held out an impressive selection of flowers. His jeans and black leather jacket hung perfectly off his frame.

She gawped and focused on the flowers. Orange and yellow freesias drowned within gypsaphelia, wrapped in clear cellophane and a huge pink bow. She looked up at his face. His perfectly groomed, shoulder length chestnut hair surrounded a tanned complexion. It made him look Mediterranean, even though he was born in the outskirts of London and had never ventured further than Scotland. It was the twinkle in his chestnut eyes and the dimples in his cheeks that brought her back to reality.

‘Ahhh…,’ Caitlin screamed, the bag now discarded on the floor. She flung herself at him and they hugged. She leant her head back and found his lips. The kiss was the hungry sort. Before it got out of hand she pulled back and slapped him lightly on the chest. ‘What are you doing here? You nearly gave me a heart attack!’

‘I can go back if you like?’ he teased, a cheeky grin pasted on his face.

‘No, you can’t. Come in here, I’ve missed you.’ She grabbed his hand and pulled him in the house. She could not help kissing him again, before a familiar loud cough interrupted them.

Caitlin pulled away and pouted at Gemma who was standing on the staircase with her arms folded, eyes alight, mouth in a half smile.

‘Don’t mean to interrupt. It’s just that the doorbell sounded again. It’s a busy night by the looks of it. Shall I get it?’

Caitlin blushed and quickly added, ‘No, it’s for me.’

Daniel held her hand fast, but she still managed to slip out of his grasp. She had no idea how she was going to concentrate on the match now.

Gemma unfolded her arms. ‘You must be Daniel then?’

‘Yes, nice to meet you.’ He did not turn to face her, eyes glued on Caitlin.

The signs were loud and clear, he was totally besotted. Gemma did a head to toe analysis. Nice clothes, cute features, tight butt. Impressive, Caitlin had come good at last.

Caitlin turned back and gave Daniel a pleading, lost puppy, kind of look, ‘I have to go for a water polo match. Do you want to come and watch?’

Gemma could have laughed aloud. There was no chance he would let up on the opportunity to spot girls in swimsuits, especially when one of them was Caitlin.

No surprise that Daniel replied, ‘I’d love to see you play. Do I need to drive?’

Gemma grinned. All men were the same.

‘No, there’s room for you in the car. Come on, let’s go or we’ll be late,’ Caitlin said, as she reached out for his hand.

Gemma stood in the doorway and watched them dash out, scramble into the car and whizz off.
